No doubt much labor has been well

developed Young minds have been
cherished, fed. exercised and furnished

many have been well provided and

their reading might be without tears ~
Small profit grows where is no pleas

makes an enthusiastic scholar. Men will
never teach others to love what they
don't love themselves. A flame is lit by
a flame.
About the bottom is the hard work,

the easier the rise, the pleasanter the air,
the brighter the light. But can't the

So saws the cattle raiser. Even the
necessary drudgery of early stud
les can be made agreeable and
acceptable by the sympathy and single
heartedness Of the teacher. The phil
osOphy Of language or mere grammar
is full of natural truth and law There
is nothing in gymnastic feat. But boys
and men rejoice in the exercise and
putting forth of strength, and the teacher
has done the greatest part Of his work
who has taught the scholar TO delight in
hard work yet he has done much more
who has taught him TO work with grace
and life and pleasantness.

of education at last Is it not first to
make life endurable; to train and de.
velop the powers and faculties, that we
may be able TO Ii C by the sweat of our
brows in honorable pursuits, and earn an
honest living Far above all that, is it
not TO establish the individual in the

him-to make him well-founded and as

pure and high in taste and aspiration,

those who have more scruples, to keep
their hands tOlerably clean in this world
where there is much dirty work to be done.
COnvictS and eX-cOnvtcts are naturally con-
sidered by the world at large as the most
hardened and callOus as to conscience. hence
to them the majority apply when they de-
sire dirty work to be done.
But do not wish to make out that con-
victs are worse than Others. for it is not so.
You may find about the same ratio of ''hOn-
Orable" cOnvicts as you will honorable
citizens. There are persons in here as well
as outside who observe the rules of honor
as we would the stars-frOm afar-and 1
trust all are not Judged by these few. For
if they wer9 we-all mankind-wOuld soon
cease to believe our own better self, since
that also would become part of the COM
mon nature which is degraded in our
thoughts.
Under every guilty secret there is hid
den a brood of guilty wishes. whose I'M
wholesome. injecting life is cherished by
the darkness. The communicating effects
of deeds often lie less in the commission
than the consequent adjustment of our
deSiring-the enlistment of our Self-intereSt
on the side of falsity. AS, on the other
side, the purifying influence of public con-
fessiOn springs from the fact that by it the
hope in falSehoOd is for ever swept away.

ssCOMVictS Can Tell the TRUTH,

Editor Mirror:
There appeared in TIE MIRROR of Sept.
21st an article headed as above and signed
by one of our SISTER convicts. While [
do not profess to understand the personal
illusions seemingly intended. yet 1 would
like to make a few remarks on the subject
of why we. as cOnvicts collectively, are
presumed by so many as incapable of stat
ing the truth at all times. For | don't
think that anyone will claim that conyicts
as individuals are more given to lying than
are mankind generally. In the first place,
1T is natural for person guilty of wrong
act to deny it. OF at least not affirm his
guilt until he or she is compelled to own it by
actual conviction. In this world of cor
ruptiOn, where SO many have been acquit-
ted because of their wealth. influence or
social and political standing that it ell
cOurages all to make a bold stand and
declare their innocence until they are con-
vlcted. In the second place, there has
been in the past so many cOnvicts as we'll
as citizens who are always ready to COM
nit any act or to perjure themselves even
for the sake of self-gain. 1t may be a
convict who expects pardon as his or her
reward, or it may be a detective, or other
officer, who desires the conviction of some
innocent one that he may receive the large
reward offered. In either case where it
has been exposed, it tends to lessen the
respect for common humanity, and people
begin to inquire into the benefits to accrue
to the party before they trust implicitly the
statement of their fellow-beings.
Often we find that unprincipled men and
women are useful inasmuch as they enable
